While moving from her third-storey apartment, a university student decides to lower her couch through her window using ropes. During the process, the ropes snap and the couch, which is 12.0 m above the ground, falls to the ground below. Her friends, who are both 1.50 m tall, notice the accident when the couch is directly above them. Determine the time they have to get out of the way.

Two cars, a Porsche Boxster convertible and a Toyota Scion xB, are traveling at constant speeds in the same direction. a. At t = 0, the Boxster is 186 m behind the Scion. The speed of the Boxster is 24.4 m/s and the speed of the Scion is 18.6 m/s. Which is the correct graph of x(t) for the two cars on the same axes? the 4 options are attached b. Suppose, instead, that the Boxster is initially 172 m behind the Scion. The speed of the Boxster is 24.4 m/s and the speed of the Scion is 18.6 m/s. How much time does it take for the Boxster to catch the Scion? answer in seconds
A car traveling at 35.0 km/h speeds up to 43.0 km/h in a time of 8.00 s. The same car later speeds up from 65.0 km/h to 73.0 km/h in a time of 8.00 s. Let the +x direction point in the direction the car is traveling. Calculate the magnitude a₁ of the constant acceleration for the first time interval. Determine the distance d₁ traveled by the car during the first time interval. Calculate the magnitude a2 of the constant acceleration for the second time interval. Determine the distance de traveled by the car during the second time interval. a₁ = d₁ = a₂ = d₂ = m/s² m m/s² m

A golf ball is dropped from rest from a height of 9.90 m. It hits the pavement, then bounces back up, rising just 6.30 m before falling back down again. A boy then catches the ball when it is 1.40 m above the pavement. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the total amount of time that the ball is in the air, from drop to catch. Number i Units
A particle travels along the +x axis. At t = 0 s, its velocity is 10.0 m/s and its acceleration is -2.0 m/s^2. Question A: Which of the following statements is true? 1. The particle will slow down and eventually come to a complete stop 2. The particle cannot have a negative acceleration and be moving in the positive x direction 3. The particle will continue to move in the positive x direction, slowing but never coming to a complete stop. 4. The particle will slow down, stop momentarily, then speed up in the x- direction. Question B: At what time will the particle be stopped? 1. t = 5.0 s 2. t = -5.0 s 3. t = -0.2 s 4. The particle does not ever stop Question C: What is the particle's displacement from its initial position at t = 10.0 s ? Please Answer questions A, B, and C
A circular racetrack has a distance of 755 m. A racer is currently driving her car on the racetrack. As she starts the car from rest, it begins to accelerate to a speed of 120 kph in 9 s. a.
